You can’t have a taser, but you can sex traffic minors.
No no, the executive branch can do it.
Uh, he is in the legislative branch…
Oh right. Them too
I think it’s more correlated with wealth.
Nah. It’s legislative power. GOP can’t afford to lose any more votes in the house.
No, it’s definitely wealth. We have a two tiered justice system.
This can only be a publicity stunt, and at that, he was too much of a puss to have an actual gun on him.
It helps him get the girls into the van
The taser or the stunt?
Girls love stunt vans.
Well how else is he supposed to keep those kids quiet when he flies them to his rape palace.
How else is he supposed to get dates? They shut down his Venmo account.
I guess he had an unwilling date later.
It’s absolutely hilarious to me how many of the “tough guys” who think they’re the most macho men on the planet have to carry a fucking weapon on them at all times.
Are you a “tough guy” for real, or do you just cosplay as one with the other incels, Matty?
The middle school girls think it makes him look cool.
Carrying a weapon on you at all times screams *frightened coward" to me.
Terrorist
He’s got the wrong colored skin /s
If a regular citizen had a taser at airport security, they would have been held as a terrorist.
This is not true. C’mon. I hate Gaetz’s guts. But it’s not like he was wielding it at security.
People can transport weapons via checked in luggage. It wouldn’t be uncommon for some distracted packer to put it in their carryon - at which point the person would be stopped and told “you can either dispose of it, or not enter the secure area. Your choice.”
Unless you’re brown like me, of course ;)
This is not true either. My boss accidentally had a bullet in his bag. No gun or anything to actually use it and they held him and threatened to arrest him. He’s white btw.
What’s wild here is I had 20 bullets in my backpack that I accidentally left in there, and they let me through, and through a connecting flight, and only caught them on the flight home, and made me throw them away. I am white which could have contributed to the “toss to enter” treatment, but I did technically fly with explosives in my carry on.
Sucks to be your boss, then, but that’s pretty anecdotal. Plus you can’t compare a bullet with a taser.
I’m replying to a comment that just specified weapons in general.
Fair enough.
It was definitely true in the Bush years. Less so now. That was a dumb time. Unlike now, which is dumb in new and unique ways.
The twist? it was in his ass…
Airport security wouldn’t be needed for that, though, because he talks out of it.
I didn’t know he played chess.
Crafty callback. Nice.
So I’ve spent an embarrassing amount of time thinking “why are all these people so clueless!?” when their weapons are found at TSA etc, but JUST NOW I realized it’s because they are usually waived through.
Even an idiot like pedo Gaetz should have a right to defend himself. Just stupid to bring it to the airport.
Having a taser is not the problem. Republicans forgetting where their taser or gun is at, is the problem.
Gaetz is trying really really hard to be as shit like as possible.
Well, that’s not news…
